    The wait for our new Prado has, at least, allowed us to store away some extra funds for the initial set-up. So far we are looking at an extra 8K over purchase price for all the extras we want.

    This was another reason why we went for the GXL over the VX or even the LC200. While we could have perhaps gone for the others, it would have been less (no) money left over to mod-up.

      Thought I would rehash this old thread. But I am not revealing how much I have spent.

          HA HA.

          I'm happy to reveal that I have still spent less on ours than if we had bought a bog standard Grande.

              Classic... looks like you need to keep your sign-on secure.

              But I'm with photoprado. We bought the GXL to allow us to specifically add all the extras we wanted... and still saved money over the Grande.

                we are almost tipping over the 8 grand mark in just under 12 months but has given us enjoyment and seen places you just can't put a price on.

                  Umm does this total include fixing of panel damage (by my own means or others hitting my car) ???

                  without fixing things that have happened to it Probably around the 10k to 12k mark maybe a bit more when I add all the stuff up on it
                  with damage repair around 18k???

                      Love the drop tow bar hitch.. he he.

                      I rekon we are up to 10K easy.
                      Bar, lift, tyres, snork, timer, uhf, lights, seat covers, rack, fridges and GPS to find my way back when the missus tells me to get lost...

                      Better go..

                      Reminds me of my safari in Africa. Somebody forgot the corkscrew and for several days we had to live on nothing but food and water.
